Williams v. State

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
May 28, 1993
619 So. 2d 398 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1993)

Opinion

No. 92-02055.

May 28, 1993.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Polk County; Oliver L. Green, Jr., Judge.

James Marion Moorman, Public Defender, and Tonja R. Vickers, Asst. Public Defender, Bartow, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., Tallahassee, and Peggy A. Quince, Asst. Atty. Gen., Tampa, for appellee.


Dwight A. Williams entered into a negotiated plea of guilty to four separate charges and violation of probation. Due to a scrivener's error, the judgment incorrectly indicates that Williams pled nolo contendere. The convictions and sentences received by Williams are proper and we affirm the trial court's actions, however, the clerical error must be corrected. See Wright v. State, 568 So.2d 1313 (Fla. 2d DCA 1990).

Accordingly, the cause is remanded to the trial court to allow correction of the clerical error so the judgment will properly reflect that the appellant entered a plea of guilty.

Affirmed and remanded, with directions.

SCHOONOVER, A.C.J., and PARKER and ALTENBERND, JJ., concur.
